A series of webinars will be hosted on Intelligence Hub, with 70+ global business leaders and experts sharing their insights in the above mentioned 11 industries.
Backed by the HKTDC’s global network of 50 offices and a powerful database, ASWO’s exhibition team provides excellent customer service, pre-arranges business matching meetings with on-target partners and unveils the latest industry trends and developments for participants. What’s more, ASWO continues to utilise “Click2Match ”, an AI-enabled business matching platform, to provide buyers and suppliers with online self-service tools such as meeting planner, live chat, video meeting, and e-business card exchange.
